actually, i don't think it is. XD

Kaderin Triste 11-20-2018 11:17 PM

But....how am I supposed to enjoy it if it's not full overexaggerated cliches?
XD

trystan830 11-20-2018 11:42 PM

erm.... it's a good story? well i'd like to think it's a good story. but that's just me.

want me to link it?

Kaderin Triste 11-20-2018 11:58 PM

I mean...I don't promise to read all of it just because I'm not a huge fan of romance. Just in general. But I'd give it a go.

trystan830 11-21-2018 12:07 AM

Will have to try to remember to open that before I leave work tomorrow because without wifi, it's taking ages.

trystan830 11-21-2018 01:33 AM

yeah, it's a few pages long. XD

Kaderin Triste 11-21-2018 01:34 AM

Lol. Just one or two?
XD

trystan830 11-21-2018 01:36 AM

one.

hundred and ten. i think.

Kaderin Triste 11-21-2018 01:38 AM

Haha...oh is that all? XD

trystan830 11-21-2018 01:39 AM

actually yeah. it's only 53,085 words, so says the NaNo word count thing. most romance novels are more than that.

Brain is too tired to actually list stuff but you have an interesting year list there, Kaderin. I've read a couple, seen a couple through films, and recognize more authors than books I think. I know that "The Killing Joke" is supposed to be a pretty big deal as far as comics go. Written Alan Moore I notice as well.

I've dodged romance stories, though my mom assures me that a lot of them are actually quite good and the cover is usually something silly that in all likelihood has nothing to do with the actual story. She would also say that the cover guy looked the same on every book regardless of how the actual character looked. She was right. It was Fabio. Hee hee.

I could review that thing for you, though I've never read anything actually called "romance." Can't speak for time but I don't have any review obligations for now.

trystan830 11-21-2018 11:25 AM

actually, yes, romance novels to have what i call "the real plot" in addition to the sappy romantic stuff. and depending on which overall plot (the "pursuit" plot vs the "married on page 3 and now we have to learn to love each other" plot), that determines how may actual love scenes are in the book. now, this may have all changed since i read all those romance novels (which was mostly before i got married. huh. okay then.)

and sure, quiet, if you want to give it a read, you can. all but my first NaNo (2011) is in my google docs, actually

Quiet Man Cometh 11-21-2018 10:32 PM

Ah. Are they more or less complete or are you still editing?

trystan830 11-21-2018 10:47 PM

they're more or less complete... but i'm sure they need editing XD

Quiet Man Cometh 12-02-2018 01:13 AM

December's book may be finishing up the other books I started this year but haven't finished. I'll still be over twelve though!

Is it too early to start the 2019 thread? I need to start making my list! I guess I can just start it here and move it over come January.
